The trade-weighted US dollar was back to a post-recession high against a basket of 26 currencies on September 2. For now, the most compelling argument for higher interest rates made by the Fed is the resilience of labor markets. Economists at the National Bank of Canada think things are about to change.
“Full-time employment, meanwhile, has stagnated since the beginning of 2022. This suggests that companies may be on the verge of cutting back on hiring in the coming months.
